Stopped in to visit our friend who manages this location. Addams is easily one of my preferred harvest restaurant locations. Downside would be there is only paid parking nearby. The inside opens up to a large bar with high ceilings and a giant fire place. There is an upstairs as well and seating in the back that lets you see the wood fired ovens. We ordered the clam chowder, wings, and pork belly bao buns. The chowder was packed with clams and maybe needed a tiny bit more salt but was filling. The wings came out as all flats which was a huge plus as I'm not too big of a fan of drumsticks. The pork belly bao buns were easily the best thing I've had and was so shocked about the flavor mix and how delicious they were. The Bao buns weren't doughy at all and had the perfect texture. Also highly recommend the spring time mocktail I had one and it was so pleasantly refreshing and sweet. read more

We weren't here for Mother's Day 2026. Great ambience kind of slow service. I ordered the clam chowder cup. It was very tasty and we ordered some appetizers. Also very tasty. In one of the apps we found a piece of hair. The manager was kind enough to comp all the appetizers that we had. Saved save us some money. I ordered the harvest omelette and I have to tell you for a three egg omelette. This was a pretty shabby excuse for an omelette. Didn't have much of a taste and was tiny in size. No way this could be three eggs. Overall, I would say this is a pretty good place to have dinner or lunch. I just think it's very high priced of restaurant in Westfield. I'm giving you three stars because of the hair situation but remainder of the food was adequate. read more

We went to Addams Tavern in Westfield on a Saturday night for a date night, and honestly, it didn't live up to the hype. The place came highly recommended, which made it more surprising that so much of what we wanted to order wasn't available. We started with appetizers and a shared salad, but when we asked for the smoked wings and cheddar biscuits, two items people had said were must-haves, we were told they were out. So, we pivoted and went with spring rolls, which were actually solid for a non-Asian restaurant, a Caesar salad, roasted Brussels sprouts with grapes, and macaroni and cheese that tasted like Velveeta Shells instead of the kind of gourmet version you'd expect at a place like this. The food itself was fine, but being out of what they're supposedly known for took the air out of the night. Service was kind but slow, and coordination and tempo wasn't great, we didn't find out some of our items were unavailable until long after ordering. The atmosphere was lively, classic Saturday night crowd, but the overall experience just didn't click. While we made the best of it, we ended up cutting the night short, having one round with dinner, and then moving our bar tab to another spot to finish the evening. Addams Tavern feels like it could be great if it were managed and stocked more consistently, but as it stands, it's a three-star experience at best. Plenty of better options nearby in Westfield. read more

A friend and I went to Addams Tavern on a Saturday night to celebrate her birthday and had a great experience! We were put on a waitlist so I'd recommend making one prior to going. The restaurant has a decent amount of seating but seems to get busy. We ended up being seated later in the night around 8 and it was pretty empty as the night went on. We both got burgers and tried two appetizers - the burrata cheese while came with sourdough and figs, and their biscuits with a honey butter. Both appetizers were good, could have used a little more flavor but were comforting and tasty. The fig jam added good flavor to the burrata and bread which were pretty mild. We both were surprisingly full by the time we got to our burgers. The burger was solid and came with fries which were pretty good as well. Overall, we had a solid experience here. Addams Tavern is a nice place to go for a cozy night out, not too loud, with solid food, although pricy so make sure it's in your budget (we got some of the less expensive picks on the menu and it came out $60ish per person). Our waiter was also kind and had a good sense of humor. read more

A local favorite tucked in Westfield downtown, which always seems busy during dinnertime. I love that there's a seasonal menu that changes, and there a board near the front that describes all the local farms that they source their ingredients from. During my last visit, it was about a ~15 min wait and instead of a waitlist, the restaurant just places you in a reservation spot on Resy, so check for that ahead of time. Dinner was delicious - a bit on the pricey end, but felt elevated overall. I particularly enjoyed the fried zucchini blossoms and wings. I also recently learned that Addams Tavern is owned by Harvest Restaurants group (the same group that runs Agricola, Roots, and others across NJ), and it definitely lives up to it's reputation for hospitality and food. read more

Hospitality continues to be a detriment to their success here. With reservations made a week ago for a birthday, 15 year old looking David Hasselholf gives us a look as if we just walked in asking for a table. Clearly there are booths available to accommodate us - not just the one sitting right by the entrance. His sidekick wasn't any brighter. Their facial gestures and attitude set the tone. Our cigarette smoking server was ok at best but not very inviting. This place looks like they hired summer interns to fill open reqs. Table settings were missing, some confused looking busboy asking if we want to keep the fork. Dude, just take it and give us a new one. What's wrong with you? It's not hard. Lastly, the food sucked. I recall one take out experience being amazing but this time around - absolute garbage. Two steaks asked for medium rare and medium were nuked. They took it off the bill but it was too late. I went from giving this place a chance to absolutely hating it. Look elsewhere for a better dining experience. read more

Small portions. Slow service. Clueless bartenders. I had to ask 4 times for a glass of water. My first drink sat unrefreshed for 15 minutes and the bar was not even 2/3 full. The male bartender had no clue about basic stuff - like how many ounces the various steaks were etc. Underwhelming Meh experience overall. Definitely not returning. read more

I've been a customer here for some time and have generally enjoyed coming in, which is why my recent experience was disappointing. The food quality and preparation were not up to the standard I've experienced in the past, and more than one item fell short during the meal. I hope this was simply an off night. I like the restaurant and would like to continue coming back, so I hope more attention is given to consistency and quality in the kitchen. read more

I tend to hesitate after the restaurant spouts a conglomerate corporate vibe- Harvest Restaurants, especially with the name- a nod to Charles Addams (Addams Family). Ambiance is fine. But it would have been cool to have some tie-in with the cartoonist. Bartender was very nice and friendly. Food was generally good, but a few items- the portions were so small, it made the high price seem even higher. It was interesting going there to see what all the talk was about, but after getting take-out, I saw nothing extraordinary but a capable eatery with some solid flavors, but no bang for the buck. This will be a once only visit, as there are too many other places that are just as good and less pricey for what it is. Still, go there; the food is fine. read more

Such a cool place to visit in Westfield. It is very cozy and aesthetic. They have a few fire places that make the restaurant feel very homey. Plenty of table and seating. I just got cocktails, but will be coming back for the food. My bartender was quick and attentive. Great place for a celebration/birthday dinner! read more

We just stopped in for a drink on the Wednesday tour of Addams Fest. The bar was very busy for a Wednesday night at 7:30 IMO but good for them. We had to stand with a counter spot because all of the bar seats were taken but that's okay. I was able to get the attention of the bartender quickly and asked what the special drink was of the night. He informed me it was a pumpkin spice latte martini which sounded quite yummy. He whipped it right up and boy was it tasty. I was a little buzzed just from that and thankful to be able to just walk home. We love Addams Tavern and will keep coming back for more. read more

I came here for a belated birthday celebration this past weekend with my best friend . I'm so glad we tried this spot , as I've been meaning to for years! The place was packed on a cold Saturday night but the service was attentive and extremely well prepared for us . We had the winter mocktail for our drinks . The thyme stood out but it was delicious nonetheless . I had the chicken meatballs with spaghetti squash . It was a pretty generous portion and the sauce was cooked to perfection . We shared the gf chocolate cake for dessert . It was the perfect ending . I would 100% come back to try other entrees read more

We were coming here to tour Westfield and wanted to drop by for some food. The decor was very masculine with a nice fireplace. The service was friendly, but focused on upselling. I ordered a mimosa and a frittata. The mimosa was freshly squeezed juice and was fine. The frittata was tasty and came with a salad. The salad is drizzled with a light dressing and paired well with the frittata. The restaurant wasn't bad, I would definitely come here again. read more

Came here on NYD to celebrate a friend's birthday. This restaurant pulled no stops on making her birthday and our experience top tier. They even placed a birthday card signed by the staff on the table! We ate burgers, salads, short ribs, flatbread pizzas, salmon and more. Everything was nicely prepared and it was served by an attentive waitress inside a beautiful restaurant. A gentleman in the corner of the restaurant even bought our table of 7 people a round of drinks! Who could ask for more?! Go here!! read more

Ate there last night, table for two. We got there 10 minutes before our Saturday night reservation, it was very busy, and the bar area was crowded. We were seated about 4 minutes after our res time so no problem. The food was mostly really good, but some misses. We started with the Just Baked Cheddar Biscuits with maple butter which were phenomenal. Light and fluffy, with the right amount of saltiness from the cheddar. Really perfect. We also got the Candy Roasted Squash Coconut soup, which was surprisingly bland. It wasnt bad, but the coconut flavor was hardly noticeable, and i detected no cilantro as promised. Then we split the Harvest Fall Salad with poached pears, candied walnuts, blue cheese and Rose Vinaigrette. It was very flavorful and nicely portioned. Very good salad. For mains I got the Short Rib, which is served with a pumpkin seed puree, Brussel Sprouts and baby carrots. The rib was tender with n8ce flavor and the brussel Sprouts were excellent. The puree was good too, but thete was very little of it. My wife got the Pan Roasted Chicken which was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. She would definitely order it again. Good job. Then for dessert I got the pecan pie tart, which i would not recommend at all. Often pecan pie filling is way too sweet, this was the opposite: i dont think there was any sugar in it at all. It was dry with almost no flavor, but was serviced with vanilla ice cream and a small amount of whipped cream which were both good. My wife got the Apple Cider Donut Sundae which was generously portioed and delicious! Crispy fried texture on the donuts paired with the creamy ice cream and cider caramel sauce worked so well. An excellent dessert. Our server was Danny who did a great job, and the courses were timed well, so no complaints on the service. It is expensive, at $135 for two without drinks. Mostly great, a few missteps. Highlights are Cheddar Biscuits (must try) and the Pan Roasted Chicken. read more

With the number of times that I have been to Addams Tavern, I'm shocked at myself for not doing this review sooner. I remember the first time I went to Addams for my birthday, none of my friends had been there before, so it was a new experience for all of us. Not a single person in the party had a negative thing to say, which is a nice thing to feel like you made a solid choice for your group. I always make reservations online because I like to guarantee that there will be space for my party and I when we get there, but they do take walk ins, as well. They have a bar area with stools and tables, they have regular table seating, white table cloth seating, and they have an upstairs area, as well. At one point, post pandemic when restaurants were allowed to be open again, we were seated outside. I have sat in most, if not all of these areas, and I can't tell which one I like more. When you first walk in, you are greeted by the host/hostess. The vibe is romantic with dim lighting and high ceilings. There is a subtle smoke smell that comes from the wood burning grills and the ovens (which you can openly see), and it only adds to the ambiance. The closer you sit to the ovens, the more you feel the scent clinging to you, so if that is something you're not crazy about, just ask them to seat you somewhere else. All of the staff there is fantastic. They are polite, kind and are super patient with questions and special requests that you may have. Their knowledge comes in handy when you're asking about the new seasonal items. That being said, there hasn't been anything I have tried here that wasn't fresh and delicious and seasoned just right. At my most recent visit, I had the Addams Rotisserie Pulled Chicken Salad with the crispy brussels sprouts and I loved them. So good. The ambiance with the service with the food quality is definitely worth the price you pay. So, the next time you're looking for a spot for date night, girls night out, or just a place to catch up, this is your place! Pro tip: there are bathrooms on BOTH floors, so you're never walking along the entire place just to get to a restroom. read more

Ate here last night with another couple . Stopped by the bar first for a drink. Very cool looking bar with great mixologists and generous drinks. For dinner we both shared salads , a house salad and a Caesar. Both good. We had an order of 4 cheddar biscuits. They were ok. Still irks me that I have to pay for bread. For mains our wives both had the pan roasted chicken, my buddy had harvest pork chop. We all thought everything was good, but nothing wowed us. This place does offer great ambience and great service. Plenty of parking near by. read more

Beautiful setting for the holidays, very quiet for a date night. Our waiter was very attentive and the food was delicious. Came for some apps and drinks stayed for the steak. Street parking and a lot next door you can pay. Also make sure you make a reservation prior. We did not have one but as long as we gave the table up they would seat us. They did give us ample time to enjoy our meal. read more

I went to an early midweek lunch with a friend not too long ago. High ceilings and definitely an old tavern vibe. We got here not too long after opening and by noon there were no tables, so I strongly advise you make a reservation. Sound levels were definitely loud by the time the lunch crowd arrived. The food here is definitely Westfield - a bit upscale but not inaccessible. My dining partner got a filet mignon wrap. I opted for the salad with salmon. The salmon portion was a bit skimpier than others elsewhere but was perfectly cooked. Specialty, flavored teas with herbs and fruits come in small pitchers and left at the table for a generous refill. read more

The only reason I'm giving this place four stars is because of our waiter (pictured) and the drinks. it was kind of old timing in there. I think it used to be a bank way back in the day. The vibes were very nice. I just wish the food was better. I got the buttermilk fried chicken sandwich and I was so excited for it, but it arrived thin dry and tasteless. I would come for the happy hour and sit at the bar to get drinks and maybe snacks. Shoutout to read more

A dark and romantic bar spot right in downtown Westfield! Booked a reservation ahead of time and we were seared right away upstairs! This place is massive and has all different types of vibe-loud booth, bar spot, white table cloth dining, etc... The service was excellent. You are treated like royalty, the servers are knowledgeable, attentive, and gracious. Our server, Levan, was the best! This was the best part of the experience in my opinion! The food was pretty good too! Believe it or not, the burger is one of their best menu items! We also loved the scallops, the pot pie, and the pork chop! read more

We tried Addams Tavern for the first time, and overall, it was pretty decent. The restaurant itself is nice, though there's definitely a scent to it and the acoustics/lighting weren't great where we were sitting. Our server wasn't rude, but he seemed a little irritated that we didn't order drinks or appetizers. He also wasn't the most attentive, and we had to really flag him down to get the dessert menu, water refills, et cetera. I ordered the orecchiette and sausage, which I really enjoyed. The rest of my party ordered the tuna tacos and the harvest salad, and they were happy with their order. For dessert, we got the cinnamon roll bread pudding and the sweet and salty sundae to split between three people, and we were happy with their desserts as well. We all enjoyed the food, but the noise in the room we were in wasn't great, and the service was a bit lackluster. Still, I would come back. read more

This place is part of the Harvest Restaurant group and though that usually doesn't necessarily mean anything for here it is nice to have a pretty wide selection of the Trap Rock brews on the menu! Also, the name seems to have some attachment to The Addams Family, that was created by American cartoonist Charles Addams who grew up in Westfield. "Attachment" means being inspired by, and you will also see some of the cartoons Addams drew for the New Yorker. Otherwise, there is no dust and mustiness here, only a wonderful feeling of comfort as you walk through. The Romaine Caesar Salad - Parmesan, Croutons is really a great version of a Caesar salad. The Just Baked Cheddar Onion Biscuits - Maple Chili Butter are definitely worth trying. The Crispy RI Calamari Pickled Cherry Peppers, Addams Sauce is one of the better versions of this dish I have had. The Wood Fired Baby Backs Ribs Fall Off the Bone Tender, BBQ Sauce, Creamy Sweet Relish Slaw, Baked Stuffed Potato do indeed fall off the bone though the potato could have been a better experience. read more

Great friendly staff and food especially tuna tartare! Cocktails are amazing.... I come here all the time read more

The Good: Great table away from the noisy bar and large groups. Tuna appetizer was tasty. The Meh: The place is run by teenagers - from the hosts to the servers. Mocktails are overly sweet and overpriced. Appetizers, dessert overpriced. Ridiculously tiny coke bottles, not even a half glass' worth. The Bad: Overall pricing does not match service and food quality, presentation & selection. The pork-chops were flavor-freed, doused with too much sauce (probably to hide the blandness), small and boring mashed potatoes and oddly flavored red cabbage. The raspberry sorbet had no flavor, possibly freezer burned or just old or poor quality. read more

I brought my boyfriend here to celebrate his birthday. We were actually supposed to go somewhere else but it closed alot earlier than we expected which ended up working out because the food and service here was great. Max at the front greeted us kindly and brought us to an available table immediately. His professionalism was out of this world, he just had this gentle kindness which we really appreciated. We got the burrata and crab cake as an appetizer. Although I didn't love the burrata, the crab cake was amazing. We then shared the filet mignon which was so gooooood!!!!! Thank you again to our server Max. He is such a wonderful representation of what amazing service looks like. read more

Have posted many reviews , 99% positive . Usually I say nothing unless it's positive. Went here on a busy Saturday night . Place is very classy. Seated early , hostess , waitress, manager , all impeccable service . Issue is the food , it's just not very good, borderline awful. All courses, was obvious the food was premade and reheated or taken out if fridge , like catering hall food. Tuna tartare was made hours before , congealed avocado. Steak was cold on its side , tough , and tasteless. Whipped potatoes hard, no effort to fluff them up. Maybe they had a bad night ; because place was packed. Just one foodie passing on his honest opinion. read more

Excellent service and friendly staff from arrival to departure. I usually order the hamburger, but on my last two visits the patty quality has declined. It used to be grass-fed and higher quality; now it's much greasier. Customers notice this change. I would gladly pay more to keep the original quality. read more

The ambience here was so cute but the food wasn't great. We usually love the harvest group restaurants but this one fell short unfortunately. The pepperoni & hot honey flatbread felt like a microwaved pizza with way too much cheese. Clam chowder soup was good. My short rib was a bit hard to cut and not extremely flavorful. Would definitely pick other harvest group restaurants over this one. read more
